Implemented significant updates to the TvDatafeed library, focusing on improving its performance and usability:

  • Migrated to websockets from websocket for efficient asynchronous operations.
  • Introduced asynchronous methods for fetching multiple symbol's historical data simultaneously, improving speed and scalability.
  • Enabled flexible data output, allowing users to choose between raw lists and pandas DataFrames.
  • Refactored core functionalities for better maintainability and extensibility.
  • Modified usage guide in Readme
  • Modified requirments.txt

These changes maintain backward compatibility while offering modernized functionality for TradingView data retrieval.
Looking forward to your feedback!

Thank you for the contribution @koushikghosh11, Did this patch have any changes in execution time? Also, can you suggest how can we make it real time? through persistent connections maybe. I am new to this and looking forward to your suggestion.

Hey @NumairSayed ,
Apologies for the delayed response—just catching up on old threads, and I appreciate your patience.

Regarding the execution time: I haven’t benchmarked it precisely, but I do believe there’s a noticeable improvement due to the use of asynchronous fetching for multiple symbols. It helps reduce the overall wait time compared to sequential requests, especially when working with a larger set of tickers.

As for real-time data, the TvDatafeedLive class already supports that functionality. I’d suggest taking a look at the usage guide for it—it’s designed exactly for that purpose, possibly using persistent connections depending on your setup.

If you run into anything unclear or need help around the updates I made to the TvDatafeed class, feel free to tag me. Happy to help out anytime.
